HERE is an "easy lesson" for
American farmers. 1t is one of the
best things ever told on the subject
of the tariff, because it is short, to
the point and cleverly done. Henry
attersons paper, the Louisville
Courier Journal, is responsible for
the article and it is a good one:
Three men Brown, Jones and
Robinson-sa around table, each
with ST. in his pocket, discussing the
tariff. Jones said: "Proteetion is
for the farmer as well as for the
merchant and manufacturer; the
tariff is for all alike. The farmer
pays more for what he buys, but he
has home market; that is, he sells
to the manufacturer for more than
he could get abroad"
Brown replied: If you tax the
farmer to help the manufacturer,
and the manufacturer to help the
farmer, then there is no good in it;
no advantage to any one. To show
how it would work, you, Jones, give
your 81 TO Robinson; you Robinson,
give your 81 to me, and | will give
my ST. to Jones. We have each
been taxed equally, we have been
equally protected, and we each have
81, lust as we started. If Jones is
right / see no good and no harm in
the tariff, it is merely ehild's play"
YES" said Robinson, but Jones
is not right. He. represents the
manufactures. | give him my 81,
but he only returns to YOU, who re
present the merchant, 80 cents, and
you give me only % cents. The re-
suit of the game is that Jones, who
is n manufactures, has $1.3O; you
Brown, who stand for the merchant,
have 1925, while /, the poor farmer
have but 20 cents, through we each
started out with the same amount of
money. This is the game of protec.
ton, and it is not child's play; it is
confidence game and the farmers
have to foot the loss.
The farmer OF the most ordinary in
tellgance ought to be able to see the
Ipoint of that little story. The facts
in regard to the operations of high
tariff are plainly given and will be
understood.

He nrped tie farmers I'd act

He urged the farmers to act
promptly in this matter. 10 go TO
their homes and select the very best
fruits, and best products Of all
kinds and turn the same over TO the
township committee -men, assuring
them that every apple, every peach,
every ear Of corn, every lock Of cot
ton would not only be as bread cast
upon the waters to be gathered after
many days. but would be as money
put out at large interest to be coll
lccted in the near future.
lie stated that Arkansas had al
ready taken the FIRST. premium over
the western and southern states at
ST. Louis, at Louisville, and at New
Orleans, for the best fruits; that at
the exposition held at New Orleans
Arkansas took the first premium
over the combined countries Of the
best cotton.
In speaking Of the resources Of
Arkansas he said, that her valleys
and her hills contained salt, and
marble, and lead, and link, and iron,
and silver, and gold which only
needed capital, machinery and men
to bring them to the surface, and
place them upon the market.

LELAND STANFORD is a Senator Q

LELAND STANFORD is a Senator of
the United States. He is also q
stakeholder in, and an officer of the
Pacific Railway Company. For
years it has been q matter of COM
mon belief that the officers of this
company, of which Senator Stanford
is chief, have been in the habit of
buying legislatures and using monAy
to corrupt members of Congress. AT
the last session of Congress com
mission was appointed to take testl-
timony concerning this matter and
look into this scandal. This com
mlttee went to California and put
Senator Stanford on the stand and
propounded to him the following
question:
"Was any part of the sum named
in the voucher have submitted to
you paid to any agent or individual
for the purpose of influencing legis-
lation?"
This question the Senator refused
TO answer. Had he been an honest
man he would not have refused to
answer. Had lie been conscious
that the railway company Of which
be is president, had not used money
to influence Legislation he would
have promptly said no. But he de-
clined to tell the truth, and so the
commission applied to the United
States court setting in San Francis
co for rule compelling him to dis.
close. The case was duly argued
before Justice Field Of the United
States supreme court and Judge
Sawyes, circuit judge. And they
both concured in unfolding Senator
Stanford in his refusal to answer
this plain, simple question. 1t is
hoped the commission in its report
to Congress will make such : a plain
statement of facts that prompt and
effective means may yet be adopted
to force these millionaire free hooters
into the penitentiary where they so
justly belong.
